Forum Support Tommy T. Posted July 9, 2019 Forum Support Posted July 9, 2019 You could be right, hk... but I don't remember being fingerprinted when I was granted my tourist visas before. That was only required when I needed the clearance visa when departing the country... Or are you referring to the srrv that I just got? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom, Fingerprints for Foreigners is only for Immigration purposes, The PI just do not have the technology and resources for Domestic crime printing. Of course we should remember that anyone on a Non Filipino Passport is a Foreigner YEP even other Asians as well as us Whities and those few Black people, although, I am seeing more and more Afro whatever's Lately, Kinda makes me feel a little more at Home 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the clarification. I have had my fingerprints taken here so often that I am surprised that I have any left! Well... with that srrv I won't need to do that so often any more...

But I have always wondered why they take photo and fingerprints when I was trying to leave the country on my tourist visa, but never when I entered the country? Do you or anyone else know why this is? It seems somehow backward to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Peterson Posted July 9, 2019 Posted July 9, 2019 Just as a matter of Interest, My Wife tells me that they do not take Ink Prints of Indiginates But they do take Bios so there would be no Stotage yet I guess on Local Ink prints but if hey have Bi prints to go on maybe things are moving Forward 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only think to check your Status ( BI paid up to Date) and no crimes spending in Court 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As we have been discussing, maybe this is just a transitional phase from ink to IT? I hope so - their tissues do not remove that ink very well...

When I got my PI drivers license a month or so ago, they did the same thing - ink and scan fingerprints - and two computer photos in house plus the one from the so-called medical examiner outfit next door...

We could do what the rich locals do -send the staff to do the fingerprinting for them! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
